Who will win the Vuelta a España 2016

[Gigs_98]

Did I miss something or is there really no poll yet? Anyway here it is.
Who are your big favorites? Will the Pistolero get the Vuelta record? Will Chris Froome be able to do the double? Can Quintana come back after his disappointment in France? Or will there be the classical Vuelta outsider, nobody thought about before the start like Cobo, Froome, Horner or Dumoulin?

Subjective vote is subjective

Contador should win this, he didn't lose much time off the bike after his injury just like 2014 so we should see a similar level from him, can't see Froome or Quintana having the legs while the likes of Chavez and Kruijswijk arent quite the level of Alberto.

The Vuelta being the Vuelta, you missed out 189 potential contenders

Anyway, Landa is being overlooked and has a real shot at winning. Read somewhere that he's going in as 'co-leader', not 'plan B'

Coincidentally, Landa has started more GT's than Froome this year. But it would be a good decision anyway

Quintana or Contador for me. Slight edge to Contador

AC should win this.

 

[dacooley]

ac if he still has it, if not, froome

He can at best equal it.

It would still be a record though. Boonen is the record winner of Paris Roubaix, although Roger De Vlaeminck also has 4 wins.

Podium will be Contador, Chavez, Landa.

Contador is the people's Champ', nothing wrong with that, on the contrary!

Contador
Froome
Lopez

Quintana

 

[Catwhoorg]

AC I think will pip Froome.

Not sure who will round out the podium.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Hopefully somebody can surprise the big three....

Anybody please.

Quintana

He maybe is the favorite for you but I think objectively Contador is much more likely to win. He was more or less as good as Quintana in the spring, and while Quintana rode the tour, Contador should be rested.

 

[Netserk]

The real question is: after what stage will it be natural to make the "By how much will Contador win the Vuelta with?"-poll?

 

[staubsauger]

Contador, Kruijswijk, Quintana, Landa, maybe even Lopez ... One could potentially build up totally logical cases in which one of those riders turns out as the strongest guy in this year's Vuelta. That said, Froome and Chaves ain't without chance as well. I'm really looking forward to Saturday. Hopefully the race's gonna be an as close call as it's looks like on paper!

 

[dacooley]

it's always nice to see how many people fear froome winning the vuelta. yeah, would be painful.

 

[Mr.White]

I think we will get a surprise winner this year, like Cobo and Horner was. Contador should be the freshest of main favorites but I have a feeling he will not win this Vuelta. Froome and Quintana I doubt too. Maybe Chaves, maybe someone else, I don't know...

Come on, uneven years are for outsiders, even years for Contador
